This is my first clutch of clownfish eggs...I've been waiting for my clownfishes to lay (I have freaking 9 clowns lol).

Anybody know how far along are the eggs?

Well just an update. The eggs hatched on 04/10/16 and I've been super busy with them. My clownfish immediately laid another clutch right after the first hatched so now I have two clutches to care for.

Here's a pic of the first clutch at two days after hatch. It was a really small clutch of about 25 fry. I have them in a makeshift blacked out acrylic box of approximately 5 gallons.


Here's a pic today of the first clutch 13 days after hatch. I just poured in live baby brine shrimp...going to start weening them off of rotifers.





And here's the new second clutch hatched on 04/20/16




The second clutch was waaay bigger, almost 3 x the original clutch. The original clutch has about 10-15 survivors. The fry honestly look like a bunch of swimming ants.
